Dr. Dre’s little brother dropped a certified banger in 1994. Off of the successful heals of Snoop’s Doggystyle and Dre’s Chronic this joint was felt from the West Coast all the way back East. The samples are just as smooth as the album. Peep what we have…..

It’s funny that you said that Freddie, because before I read this article, i DID read the “misinterpretations” blog haha.. so that’s possibly how I got you two mixed up. =P
13 Eric March 31, 2009 at 12:43 am: THOMAS STILL GETS HIS PROPS ANYWAYS! GOOD JOB, MONEY!
14 Fun-kee J. March 31, 2009 at 9:21 am: Thanks a lot for this one.
15 B.C. April 2, 2009 at 5:46 am: Just wondering but doesn’t super soul sis also sample Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ Thang (Freestyle Remix)” by Snoop Dogg
16 B.C. April 2, 2009 at 5:50 am: O yea another unique thing about this album is that Runnin’ Wit No Breaks uses the same beat as the unreleased The Next Episode (OG version) that was left off the chronic. I heard Runnin with no breaks actually sampled that track The Next Episode (OG version) which may have been released as a promo and is hard to find
17 The Nekro Beats August 10, 2009 at 4:57 pm: Graciasssss
